Berlin-Wedding

The Photobook

Social flashpoint, hipster district, melting pot, former West Berlin—Wedding is a reflection of the world, but in miniature. Here, residents of very different social and cultural milieus come face to face with one another. The sixteen series of photos, which were realized in cooperation with the renowned Ostkreuz photo agency and other photographers, tell of these people and their spaces. The pictures they created are subtly observed, socially critical reportages and portraits such as those by Annette Hauschild about solidarity in a local bar, or those by Espen Eichhöfer, who photographed the black community in churches and small gardens. Each photo series presents only one facet of the district, but, together, they provide a picture of lively coexistence.
